وَمَٓا اُبَرِّئُ نَفْس۪يۚ اِنَّ النَّفْسَ لَاَمَّارَةٌ بِالسُّٓوءِ اِلَّا مَا رَحِمَ رَبّ۪يۜ اِنَّ رَبّ۪ي غَفُورٌ رَح۪يمٌ ۝٥٣

53Even so, I do not declare myself entirely innocent. For a person's self constantly urges evil/carnal desires, except when my Lord shows mercy. My Lord is surely matchless in forgiveness and possesses infinite mercy."
